Lorne Gunter says the CBC should be pulled down. I happen to agree. The sooner the better. It's spews nothing but leftist propaganda. It's main pollster Frank Graves,from Ekos has been outed for his Liberal bias. It costs the taxpayer a whopping $1.1billion a year. I'm sure most taxpayers want to see value for their tax dollars. Pouring these kind of funds into CBC, the taxpayer is not getting value for the money. They don't speak for all Canadians in which as a public broadcaster, they are supposed to. That money could be better spent like on our military for instance or just give it back in form of tax cuts.

The CBC will never be able to exorcize its left-wing missionary zeal -- for global warming, for Islam, for big government, Barack Obama, multiculturalism, public health care, human rights commissions and so on. And it could never survive on private donations or ad revenues. So the only thing to do with Mother Corp is to pull down its office buildings and stations and pour salt in their foundations.And I mean radio as well as television

Anyway with a 500 channel universe now why do we need it? The only shows that are worthwhile watching on Mothercorp is Hockey Night in Canada and Dragons Den. On radio Cross Country Checkup with Rex Murphy. Other networks could pick those shows up easily and do a fine job. Let's shut it down. What ya waiting for Mr. Heritage Minister James Moore? Fire them all! Better yet, sell the whole works to Rupert Murdock and maybe we can have some fair and balance programing for a change. Let all the CBC so called journalists go look for real jobs.
